A KID Report Card: Executive Summary Since 2002, Kids In Danger (KID) has released an annual report detailing children’s product

recalls throughout the previous year. This year’s report examines children’s product recalls in

2016. In addition, the report examines how effective the recalls from 2014 were in removing

dangerous products from homes.

Findings of the report include:

The number of children’s product recalls (76) increased 12% from 2015.

There were 66,813,956 total units of children’s products were recalled, the highest in any

year since 2001 except 2004 when 150 million vending machine toys were recalled.

Incidents, injuries and deaths rose sharply with a total of 4,842 incidents, 394 injuries and

seven deaths reported before recalls were issued in 2016.

Nursery products led recalls with 32% of children’s product recalls, but for the first time

in a decade no cribs were recalled.

Sixty percent of companies with a Facebook page used it to publicize the recall – a

dramatic increase from the past.

With full reports from only 37% of recalls – and those did not all contain a full year’s

worth of data – it is impossible to state how companies are doing in retrieving or

repairing recalled products.

There was a vast increase in number of incidents reported prior to recall this year – it took an

average of 64 reports of serious design flaws and failures to pull dangerous products from the

shelf. This is up from 12 in 2015 and 5 in 2014. This demonstrates a growing issue with recall

speed, and we hope that these unfortunate statistics encourage manufacturers to act more quickly

in order to remove dangerous products from consumers’ homes. With new information available

from CPSC, we hope to look at the effect of the Fast Track process on recall speed next year.

Not only did companies use social media more to publicize recalls, CPSC has recently begun

posting recalls on Facebook and Instagram, along with Twitter. This will hopefully increase

awareness of recalled products in their homes.

As Danny’s Law continues to be implemented it is important to look for other opportunities to

improve children’s product safety. KID recommends that CPSC and manufacturers do more to

make recalls effective and urges consumers to check their products against recall lists.

Introduction Kids In Danger’s (KID) annual recall reports examine data and trends in children’s products that

have been recalled by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC). This year’s report

examines children’s product recalls in 2016 as well as the effectiveness of recalls from 2015.

Congress created the CPSC in 1972 through the Consumer Product Safety Act (CPSA). In the

CPSA, Congress directed CPSC to protect the public “against unreasonable risks of injuries

associated with consumer products.” CPSC has jurisdiction over more than 15,000 kinds of

consumer products, and is charged with protecting consumers from products that pose fire,

electrical, chemical, or mechanical hazards or others that can injure children. In 2008, Congress

passed the Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act (CPSIA). This law – including a section

named for Danny Keysar, whose parents founded KID – requires standards for juvenile products,

bans lead and other harmful substances, and mandates independent testing for most children’s

products.

Children’s Product Recalls In the calendar year 2016, there were 332 recalls issued by CPSC, of which 76 (23%) were

children’s products. Compared to 2015, this is a 15% increase in overall recalls and a 13%

increase in children’s product recalls.

Figure 1: Children’s Product Recalls

Figure 2: Units of Children’s Products Recalled

Though the number of children’s product recalls increased slightly from the previous year, the

number of units recalled increased by over 1000%. This is primarily due to two recalls: IKEA’s

recall of various dressers and chests and McDonald’s recall of “Step-iT” Activity Wristbands,

both coincidentally amounted to 29 million units. However, even without these two recalls, the

number of units recalled would have been almost 10 million, still a significant increase from

2015, which saw only 5,501,952 units recalled.

Product Categories This year, nursery products accounted for

32% of all children’s product recalls. These

products were primarily recalled for fall and

choking hazards. Despite having one third of

recalls, nursery products accounted for less

than 2% of total recalled units: furniture

products and jewelry products (43% each)

led in this category as a result of the IKEA

furniture recall, which had tip-over risks,

and McDonald’s recall of the “Step-iT”

Activity Wristbands given out in Happy

Meals, which had risks of skin-irritation and

burn.

Table 2: Types of Products Recalled

Cribs Recalled For the first time in ten years no cribs were recalled in 2016. This demonstrates that 2010’s

mandatory crib standards have a positive effect on crib safety. But other products that are not

covered by mandatory standards or fail to meet them still have a very firm presence in the

marketplace. For example, a bedside sleeper from Bednest was recalled this year for failing to

meet federal standards regarding bedside sleepers. Fortunately, this product was recalled before

any incidents were reported.

IKEA Chest and Dresser Recall

On July 28, 2016 IKEA recalled a majority

of the chests and dressers in their MALM

collection, as well as several other models.

This recall came after three deaths were

reported as a result of MALM units and an

additional three deaths were reported as a

result of other units. After the recall,

another death from 2012 was associated

with the MALM dresser. The dressers were

responsible for 82 incidents, 36 injuries and

seven deaths.


Figure 3: Cribs Recalled

Multiple Products Recalled by One Company Three manufacturers reported more than one recall in 2016: IKEA had four recalls for a variety

of items, most notably chests and dressers; Pacific Cycle had two recalls for bicycle helmets and

jogging strollers; and Tommee Tippee had two recalls for spill-proof cups and electric bottle and

food warmers. These products were recalled for strangulation, tip-over, laceration, fall, choking,

ingestion, mold, and fire hazards.

children’s product recalls, amongst a total of 12 consumer product recalls. The children’s

products recalled during this period have caused 90 incidents, including 38 injuries and 7 deaths

in the U.S. alone.

Recall Hazards Children’s products are recalled for a variety of hazards. Choking, entrapment, suffocation or

entanglement risks encompass 37% of recalls. This year, products causing these kinds of hazards

include IKEA dressers and chests and Munchkin’s Latch Pacifiers and Clips. About a third of

recalls, 32%, pose fall, laceration or other bodily injury risks. Products posing these risks

include Rainbow Play Systems’ plastic trapeze rings and Pacific Cycle’s Instep and Schwinn

swivel wheel jogging strollers.

In February 2016, a father posted a picture of his

daughter’s moldy sippy cup on Tommee Tippee’s

Facebook page. Other parents commented with pictures

of their children’s moldy cups. Tommee Tippee assured

customers that they had tested the cups and that all was

fine when instructions were followed. They also

provided tips on cleaning the cups and replacements to

those who requested them.

This did not prevent cups from being sold, the

replacement was not an improved model, and the

information was not broadcast to users. After a total of

3,066 incident and 68 injury reports, Tommee Tippee

finally recalled the cup.

Incidents Reported Prior to Recall In 2016, there were 4,842 incidents reported prior to recall for the 76 children’s product recalls –

an average of almost 64 reports filed before a recall is issued. This is a 492% increase from 2015,

which only saw 819 incident reports, or 12 reports per product.

Figure 4: Incidents Reported Prior to Recall

Most reports (63%) were a result of Tommee Tippee’s Sippee Spill-Proof Cups; however four

other products were responsible for 100+ reports. The five products from this table account for

84% of all incident reports.

Table 5: Products with 100 or More Incident Reports

Injuries Prior to Recall Overall, 25% of children’s product recalls involved injuries prior to recall – a total of 418

injuries in 2016. This figure is far greater (almost a 1000% increase) than 2015’s figure of 36

Deaths Prior to Recall In 2015, there were no deaths reported in conjunction with any recalled children’s products;

however, in 2016 this was not the case. There were seven death reports as a result of the dressers

and chests recalled by IKEA in 2016. Although the number of deaths increased from the past

couple years, without the IKEA dressers and chests there would have been no deaths reported.

Social Media Use to Promote Recall Awareness Social media is now recognized as a vital marketing tool. Companies can use social media to

advertise and connect with consumers, as well as provide customers with information pertaining

to recalls.

For the past few years, KID has searched through Facebook and Twitter extensively to analyze

whether companies are using these platforms to advertise recalls and improve effectiveness. The

number of companies using Facebook to post about their recall increased significantly from

2015. However, the amount of companies posting on Twitter about their recall decreased slightly

from the previous year. This is the first year KID has examined the use of Instagram as a tool to

advertise recalls; Instagram is used far less than Facebook and Twitter.

Figure 7: Social Media and Companies Responsible for 2016 Recalls

Furthermore, CPSC has very recently begun using their Facebook page to announce recalls.

Hopefully this will positively impact recall effectiveness in the years to come.

Recall Effectiveness of 2015 Recalls Recalls are an important tool for keeping dangerous products away from vulnerable populations

such as children. However, a recall announcement alone does not get the dangerous product out

of homes.

No Profile Profile without Recall Profile with Recall


To test how effective children’s products recalls really are, KID requested monthly progress

reports on 2015 children’s product recalls from the CPSC through the Freedom of Information

Act (FOIA). These reports were requested individually through emails to CPSC, who sent

separately a confirmation of receipt and the report through the mail. This system is inefficient

due to the cost of paper and postage, as well as the amount of time between the initial request

and receipt of the report (in some cases up to four months). It is hard to understand in 2017 why

the process has not become fully digitized.

Furthermore, most reports include data discrepancies and redactions, and almost all reports do

not cover the amount of time requested. Some of the companies involved in the recalls have yet

to respond to our requests, leaving even more holes in the data. Due to loopholes specifically

applying to the CPSC through the Consumer Product Safety Act under Section 6(b), the CPSC

must first contact the manufacturer and allow them to suggest what should and should not be

shared in a FOIA request or risk being sued.1 This censorship makes it difficult for the public to

receive important safety information.

Also of note, several reports that were received from the CPSC reported numbers of recalled

product units that differed vastly from the numbers released in CPSC reports. For example,

Levels of Discovery reported only three units of their Fly Boy Airplane Rockers were affected

by the recall; however, at the time of recall, they reported 150 units were recalled. This is a piece

of information that, along with number of incidents and injuries and presence of recall

information on a company’s webpage, can be checked. Most of the information on the reports

cannot be checked for accuracy.

The table below includes only reports that had no glaring incidents of miscalculations, data

discrepancies, missing information or redactions; in other words, the only reports with errors

accepted in this study were those that did not include data from all 12 months requested.

Whereas 68 reports were requested for this study, only 25 reports provided usable information.

Table 8: 2015 Recalled Products Corrected

Retailers 365,644 331,921 90.78

Consumers 800,273 80,477 10.06


Drawing conclusions from this limited information poses many problems. Twenty-five reports

only represent 37% of the possible information. Furthermore, the majority of the reports

containing redactions are higher-profile and more concerning cases. The number of units

accounted for in this table (1,531,418) is only 28% of the total units recalled in 2015 (5,501,952).

From this data, it is clear that products with consumers are being corrected at an abysmal rate.

More units are found in the hands of consumers than in any other category, yet so few of these

products have been corrected. The information in this table might suggest an improvement from

years past (in 2014, only 1.33% of products with consumers were corrected), but too few recalls

are included to draw conclusions, due to the large amount of redactions and missing and false

information.

Incidents after Recall Of the 25 reports in this study, there were 23 reports of incidents after the recall: 15 from outdoor

products and 8 from nursery products. However, again, this figure is not indicative of the actual

number of post-recall incidents. Many companies chose to specifically not include the data

regarding incidents and injuries after recall.

Conclusion This report shows child product safety has a long way to go to become acceptable. The statistics

from 2016 show a departure from a generally positive trend since Danny’s Law was passed in

2008; the amount of units recalled and incidents, injuries and deaths before recall skyrocketed

this year. Furthermore, it is impossible to interpret the effectiveness of the recall system, as

companies have the option to not participate in or intentionally obscure data. With this in mind,

KID recommends the following:

Continued implementation of Danny’s Law is imperative to improve children’s product

safety. Mandatory standards should continue to be developed and implemented. Danny’s

Law has proven effective to reduce recalls where new standards are in place.

Companies must move more quickly to report and recall products that cause injuries and

death. Waiting to recall a product only means more potential for harm.

Consumers have to be aware of a recall and know how to comply to raise effectiveness

rates. Therefore, recall efforts should involve multiple methods – such as using social

media – of reaching the consumers and getting hazardous products out of their homes.

CPSC should focus on recall effectiveness, first by strengthening and better enforcing

requirements for progress reports and other requirements of corrective action plans and

then by encouraging innovations from recalling companies and others to improve

effectiveness.


KID urges every parent and caregiver to take the following four steps to protect children in

their care.

1) Be aware of the problem: Visit www.KidsInDanger.org for more information on children’s

product safety and to sign up for free email alerts to stay up-to-date on recalled products.

Consumers can also sign up at www.cpsc.gov to receive notice of recalls by email.

2) Always check products: Take an inventory of the products used with children—at home, at

childcare, and elsewhere—and check it against the list of recalls at www.cpsc.gov. Check for

safety information on car seats at the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA),

by visiting www.nhtsa.gov. Repeat the check every time a child receives a new product, gift, or

hand-me-down. Consumers can use KID’s mobile site, available by going to KidsInDanger.org

from any mobile device, to search for recalls while away from their computer.

3) Spread the word: Report any injuries or problems with products at www.SaferProducts.gov.

After learning of a recall, share the news with friends and family and urge them to pass it along.

Always fill out product registration cards so manufacturers can send recall information. Product

registration cards and online registration are required for durable infant and toddler products, but

you can use the same online sites to register other products such as toys from the same company.

Visit KID’s Product Registration page for links to manufacturer’s registration pages.

4) Become an Advocate: Let local, state, and national lawmakers know that children’s product

safety is important. Find out more at www.KidsInDanger.org advocacy pages and join the KID

Action Team to keep children safe.

Methodology, Definitions and About KID KID obtained all recall information for this report from press releases issued jointly by product

manufacturers and the CPSC. Press releases outline the incidents, failures, and injuries caused

by the product prior to the date of recall. All numbers, facts, and figures contained in this report

originated in these press releases. Only children’s products under the jurisdiction of the CPSC

were considered. This excludes car seats and booster seats regulated by NHTSA. However,

CPSC does have oversight of car seats that also function as infant carriers.

To determine how effective 2015’s recalls have been KID requested Monthly Progress Reports

for Corrective Action Plan (CAP) and Incident Updates for all 68 children’s products recalled in

2015 through the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) from the CPSC. However, only 65 reports

were received from CPSC and many of these reports included redactions and data errors.

A children’s product is defined as any product designed or intended for the care of or use by

children. Products that pose potential dangers to children but that are not intended for their use,

such as cigarette lighters with faulty child resistance locks and window blinds, are not counted as

children’s products. Children’s products were further categorized for this report by the type of

product (clothing, furniture, nursery products, sports and outdoor, jewelry, miscellaneous, and

toys). The product name, manufacturer, date of recall, number of units recalled, type of hazard

posed, and number of incidents and injuries were also recorded for children’s products recalled

in 2016 (Appendix A).

KID is a nonprofit organization dedicated to protecting children by improving children’s product

safety. KID was founded in 1998 by Linda Ginzel and Boaz Keysar after the death of their 16-

month-old son, Danny, in a dangerous portable crib. For more information, call 312.595.0649 or
